Day 46 Sheffield

The city of Def Leppard and David Coverdale. Another ice-cold venue. Instant coffee and sandwich for breakfast. Buy-out again, so we went to find a pub somewhere. Had a burger for dinner. Average.  The show was fun. Rikard had a…

Day 45 Manchester

Woke up with pain in my left-hand knuckles. Doesn’t help that the venue is really cold. How come these British venues don’t have functioning heating? Late breakfast/early dinner was instant coffee and a sandwich with guacamole and cheese.  Feels like…

Day 44 Bournemouth

Today we’re at The Old Fire Station, which coincidentally, used to be an old fire station. Cool place. Sandwich for breakfast, no coffee in this venue. Practiced for a bit. Felt good after not having touched the bass for a…

Day 43 London

Had to get up at 6:00 in the morning for border control, but it was surprisingly smooth.  Sandwich and instant coffee for breakfast. Really cold in the venue.  Tom’s birthday today. His daughter came to surprise him and some other…

Day 42 Sint Niklaas

Beautiful venue today. Good coffee, tasty sandwich. Went and bought some cold medicine, painkillers and throat pills.  Guess it’s my turn to have issues with my in-ears. Getting different levels of the instruments for some reason. Realised now that it…

Day 41 Trier

Did nothing much today either. Hmm, I’m sensing a theme here… Been coughing all day. Headache, too. Managed to get some practicing done. Dinner was quite good. Fried potatoes and pork-something.  What felt like an impossible mission (the show) actually turned…

Day 40 Mannheim

Cold dressingroom. In fact, so cold they had to put in space heaters and the staff wore hats and jackets.  Sandwich with guacamole and cheese. And good coffee. Watched a movie. No soundcheck. No practicing. Just tired.  Schnitzel for dinner,…

Day 39 Munich

After a very slow day off, we’re back at it. Some minor nuisances, like sore throats and colds, so we’ll see how this goes.  Breakfast consisted of the usual, coffee and sandwich. The coffee was really good. Didn’t really do…

Day 38 Munich Day Off

Decided to sleep for as long as I possibly could. That turned out to be 14:30. Got up, the only other people on the bus were the two drivers. Found a sandwich, watched a movie. Took a short walk. Found…

Day 37 Dornbirn

Slept really late, think I woke up at 13:30. No fever, but there’s something in the back of my throat and nose. We’ll see what happens.  Did absolutely nothing today. Sat on a couch the whole day, drinking hot water…
